Mozakhraf, Quality Street and Dvinsky look the main protagonists in this handicap and the narrow vote is given to Mozakhraf. The selection won well last time out when beating Richilieu and although having a penalty for that success he has won off a higher mark in the past and with his yard in good form he is taken to win again. Quality Street is another last time out winner that could go well as he beat Ebraam over six furlongs last time out. He has won over this trip in the past but his best form is over further and he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Divinsky was third behind Misaro last time and is another with place claims but he is becoming hard to win with. Of the others Loupehole is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he has never won off a mark this high before. This is very competitive and few can be ruled out but for the winner we return to Mozakhraf.
